THB recently passed 23,000 total subscribers in 148 countries, with about 55% located in the United States. Next week I’ll have a more detailed State of THB post — an annual report to THB subscribers.
Today, I’m interested in learning a bit more about you and your views on THB. Below is a short survey. I also welcome your comments and suggestions beyond the survey. Upon leaving academia, THB becomes my profession and, importantly, my primary income — meaning that I work for you. It is exciting, and I won’t lie, a bit scary, but also a lot of fun. So please participate and help shape THB!
For those new around here, you can learn more about my goals for THB, the origins of its name, and some other tidbits at the THB About page. On to the survey . . .
Comments invited!

as an economic geologist I have a unique perspective on energy, energy policy, and energy's absolute reliance on minerals to produce the energy we most use in the form of electricity. I live in Southern Arizona, copper country, and have been increasingly alarmed at the opposition to mining. Its akin to moving close to an airport and complaining about planes. Mining is almost never discussed as THE essential part of civilization. In discussing energy policy the necessity of mining gets lost. Mark Mills is about the only economist to discuss the necessity. It should be an important and indispensable part of energy policy. But it usually is not.
I would like to see a deposit of links of your public speeches, videos, interviews.
